I came up with the bright idea to use sheet metal screws and some creative clamping to pull the b-pillar out to meet the driver's side panel; previously it was kind of "sunk" in. I lined it up, then locked it in place with the screws; next I have to weld it in place.

Well, had a good spell on the 54 at the weekend, removed the gearbox/drive shafts etc., managed to get the front beam off (eventually), painted under all the wheel arches etc.

The "barndoor" coat hook is on the bottom, the "normal" one is on the top.

Here's the long driver's side panel that I'm trying to get straight. It's close, but it doesn't pass the straightedge test yet.

Driver's side panel supports Driver's side panel supports
Thom
http://www.vintagebus.com/54rhd
I've spent several hours over the past few days trying to get this piece lined up. The problem is the panel itself is tweaked, so trying to get this support piece in hasn't been easy. My concern is that if I don't get this panel lined up and straight now, it will be wavy beyond redemption when it comes time to do the final body work.

This use to be a 1951 deluxe, three month in to production.
Note how the roof was replaced with a metal frame, and some fabric was stretched over it.
